Testing Volumetric Karl Fischer Reagents for Efficiency

Shorten Titration Time by 50-60%, Increase Stability, and Improve Accuracy

This application note exhibits a comparison between two different Karl Fischer (KF) solvents for their efficiency in determining the water content of samples using volumetric KF titrators.
 

 

Do You Know the Best Method for Determining the Water Content in Your Samples?

The answer is simple — Karl Fischer (KF) Titration. It is the quickest and inexpensive technique to selectively determine the water content present in a sample.

 

How Can the Efficiency of the Water Content Determination Be Improved?

One way to improve the efficiency of the analysis is to optimize the composition of the KF reagent, which influences the speed and accuracy of the analysis. Thus, continuous development of KF reagents helps to improve the water content determination in terms of accuracy, stability, simplicity, safety, and environmental acceptability.

 

What Is in This Application Note?

Two different KF solvents are tested and compared for their efficiency of water content determination for two certified water standards, i.e., the 1% liquid water standard and the solid water standard di-sodium tartrate di-hydrate (15.66% water content) using volumetric KF titrators.
